Zero-temperature coarsening in the 2d Potts model
We study the fate of the 2d kinetic q-state Potts model after a sudden quench to zero temperature.Both ground states and complicated static states are reached with non-zero probabilities.These outcomes resemble those found in the quench of the 2d Ising model; however, the variety of static states in the q-state …
